Thank goodness the Riders didn't pull that one off against the Esks last year. But it was mighty darn close.

Watched that Rider one again last night with my son. In a world of ifs and buts, I wonder if Keith could have split the defenders if he didn't stumble on the 13.

But for pure "What did we do to piss off the karma gods" I would say the series of plays from a couple of years ago for New Orleans take the cake. Scoring a touchdown on the last play of the game on a rugby play only to miss the convert to force the game into overtime and miss a playoff opportunity.

That was so sad.

In the same vein...

All the Giants had to do was kneel on the ball once, but they hand it off...interesting choice.

Music City Miracle
Frank Wycheck throws a lateral (actually more like straight down the yard line) to Kevin Dyson on the last play of the game. Touchdown and a wild card win for the Titans.

Herm Edwards. Wrong black coach.

Did that TD actually count?


I know this may seem like a stupid question...but with interference on the field, I wonder if the refs blew the play dead / overruled the TD

Even though I am a Oklahoma fan, my new favorite play is the Boise State hook and ladder for the tie at this years Feista Bowl.

Here's a treat...see the whole last minute of the game in a six-minute clip. Just an amazing drama. When the penalty flags are resolved at the end, the commentators nearly keel over with heart arrest!

Who called the time out with only 8 seconds left? Honestly...the clock would have still run when the ball was set after the last play was run...
